Software Source Incorrectly Set To LTS for Intrepid

[nullack]

In Intrepid Alpha 1 x64, software sources incorrectly defaults to LTS for release upgrades when Intrepid is not an LTS release.

Thank you for reporting this, the problem also exists on i386 installations, even currently in alpha 2.

This bug did not have a package associated with it, which is important for ensuring that it gets looked at by the proper developers. You can learn more about finding the right package at [WWW] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage . I have classified this bug as a bug in gnome-system-tools.

To reproduce, go to System->Administration->Software Sources, go to the Updates tab, and check under the "Release upgrade" section.

An Intrepid Alpha 4 clean install no defaults to normal releases as expected.
